The Free MAXQDA Reader
Viewing and understanding project data without a MAXQDA license
Everyone can now view, search for, browse and “dig through” data using the MAXQDA-Reader. However, data editing and coding of a project is still only available to MAXQDA license holders.
What is the purpose of the Reader?
- Knowledge Management – All knowledge resources (e.g. in organizations) can be made available to specific target groups without manipulation of the data.
- Evaluation – Examiners are able to easily see and understand their student’s project data.
- Research Centers, Museums or Libraries – Data may be made accessible without really “giving up the wheel”.
- Teaching – Professors can view their students’ project data in order to comment on their work. Real project read-only files allow you to track and discuss distinct stages of the qualitative data analysis process.
- Teamwork – Teams can track and discuss several stages and steps throughout the analytical process on un-editable files. This way it is possible to distribute material within a research facility.
